Pet-friendly Plants
The traditional gift for Mother’s Day is a bouquet of flowers. And while most moms will love a flower arrangement, remember that many plants and flowers are toxic to pets. Even better than a bouquet is a dog-friendly plant that blooms, like a bromeliad or orchid.
Both of these pet-friendly blooming plants can be purchased from The Sill.
You can also buy a pet-friendly monthly subscription.
Pet Portraits
I’m obsessed with these modern pet portraits from Animalist. They have both dog and cat breed-specific portraits in three different styles: line, form, and abstract.
Tea Towel
I love this colorful tea towel for the mom who loves all the dogs!
Noble Friends Mug
This mug will always be my favorite! Not only are the portraits adorable, I know some of the dogs personally, including my dog Theo in the top left.
Bandana
I’m a sucker for a dog wearing a bow tie or happy bandana. The Foggy Dog sells both!
Organic Treats
The way to any dog lover’s heart is through her dog. And the way to most dogs’ hearts is through their stomachs. My dogs are crazy for the USDA Certified Organic treats from Ava’s Pet Palace! The treats check a lot of boxes for me. They are organic, don’t have wheat, soy, or corn, and are made in the United States. Equally important, Ava’s Pet Palace also donates a portion of the sales each month to a special organization. She is even open to suggestions for which rescue organizations to help.
Ava is amazing. She officially started her business in 2016 when she was only eight years old! You can read more about Ava on her website.
Dog Mom Box
Help Mom stay organized with this great Dog Mom Box from Annie Taylor Designs.
The Dog Lovers Gift Box includes:
- 1- 8×10 print “Who let the dogs out?”
- 1- 8×10 print “All you need is love & and dogs”
- 2- “Dogs are the best medicine” folded greeting cards
- 1- Pet Sitter Checklist notepad
- 1- Paw Print “Thank You” notecard set with envelopes
DNA Test
A dog DNA test may be considered a splurge, but not only is it fun to learn about a dog’s family tree, but it can also give you valuable information about a dog’s health.
T-Shirt
Depending on the occasion, being late ranges from a minor inconvenience to a serious transgression. However, wearing this “I Saw A Dog,” is a great preemptive explanation!
All of these items fall under the broad “self-care” category, so don’t hesitate to shop for yourself too!
Tara Pittman says
This is a great list of items. I love the idea of safe plants for a gift.
Gillian says
That tea towel is perfect!The dogs look so full of joy! A great collection of gifts.
Kelli A says
I always get my daughter a mother’s day gift pertaining to her pup. As her little fur baby is her whole world!

IceCreamnStickyFingers says
My dogs would love the organic treats. I like that they contain healthy ingredients and not filled with junk fillers. I’d also love a dog mom shirt.
Michelle & The Paw Pack says
My mom isn’t really a “pet person” (I know!) but she’d like the plant. I might have to show this list to my partner, ya know, in case my dogs need some inspiration for what to get ME for Mother’s Day lol!

Lynndee says
Such great Mother’s Day gift ideas for dog lovers. I don’t have a dog but I would love to have the plant for myself. 🙂
Marysa says
These are all awesome gift ideas. We have cats and I would love any of the cat versions of these. I have a lot of mom friends who have dogs and it would be fun to treat them to some of these.
Cathy Armato says
These are all great ideas for Moms. I personally love all the fashion items, I’m kind of a fashion addict. I have to say, I’m feeling a bit inadequate seeing an awesome young girl starting a business at 8 years old! Good for you, Ava!
jana rade says
I totally love the “Sorry I’m late” t-shirt. Though I’d never been late for my dog because of another–I’m religiously faithful to her even though it can be heard.
Ruth Epstein says
I love the t-shirt but must admit all the ideas are fantastic. I wish I could get for my Mom but her living in South Africa and the mail beig lousy I doubt she would ever get it.
Robin says
So many great gifting ideas! I really like the breed specific pet portraits. It’s fun to have art relating to your pets. The “Sorry I’m Late” shirt is fun too. I can relate to that – just with cats. I have to admit that I love dogs too though.
Catalina says
My mother-in-law loves dogs! She will be so happy to receive any of these gifts! I love plants and orchids are my favorite!
Melissa Cushing says

Marjorie at Dash Kitten says
I love the personalised gifts the best, they are so precious and take that bit more effort to create or shop for but they are so worth it.
